Sapphire Publications - Artist Quip

Post by mike »

I am collecting the 200 card Sapphire comic series and am six cards short. Can anyone give me a lead as to where to find Sapphire history/indexing.

Also, more than 160 of these cards are by the artist, 'Quip'.
Fred Whisstock, i.e., Quip, died in 1943 yet the cards have a 'sixties' feel to them. Is there another, 'Quip'?

Let me know which numbers you are short of as I have several by Quip... the only one that is postally used is dated 1978, so I am inclined to agree that they are of the 60s/70s period. And I do have two later cards, probably reproductions of earlier ones, these are published by Palgrave.
